Songwriter Series #4: Kyla Rowland

In this songwriter series, we’ve covered two, Squire Parsons and Dianne Wilkinson, who would be on my personal “Mount Rushmore” of gospel songwriters.  There is no doubt that a third would be Kyla Rowland.  She has been a major source of great songs for southern gospel’s top groups for over 30 years now.  Many of her finest songs were recorded first by her family groups, including the Rowlands and Deliverance.  In the early to mid-90s, Gold City made monster hits out of quite a number of them, while in the last decade or so, Rowland has found a reliable “customer” in the Perrys.

Perhaps more than any other songwriter, I can pick out a Kyla Rowland song, musically, almost immediately with relatively good accuracy.  If you hear a mid-tempo, 3/4 meter song with harmonies ideal for a mixed group, there’s a pretty good chance you’re listening to one of hers.  I don’t know exactly how to describe it, but they tend to have a certain steadiness about them..there’s not a lot of crescendo and build-up.  Power harmonies are present throughout.  She doesn’t step outside of the box too much musically, relying heavily on familiar chord progressions.  I love this about her songs, because they are easily learned, played, and sung, making them ideal for folks looking for a song to sing in church.

Speaking of singing in church, it isn’t just the music that makes them ideal for this purpose.  We all know there are plenty of songs out there that are great gospel songs and are a ton of fun to listen to, but that aren’t necessarily songs you would sing in a worship service setting, for any number of reasons.  There’s a certain style of music and worship associated with the kind of old-fashioned Baptist church I attend, and for that setting, I don’t know anyone who writes more great “church” songs than Kyla Rowland.  The lyrics, as well as those power harmonies, lend themselves so well to old-fashioned worship.  Lyrically, many Kyla Rowland songs are built around personal experience.  There are a lot of “I”s and “me”s.  But that is definitely not to say that her songs are egotistical in any way.  On the contrary, they are songs that use those personal experiences to magnify the power of God, especially as it compares to our frailty and our need.  “When I can’t stand, I have to lean…” ; “Did I mention he’s been faithful…”; “I just go back to every prayer He’s answered for me…”; “Now I have someone to champion my cause…”  This sounds like a lady who has been through the fire, and knows Who brought her through.  Her songs are testimony of that, and they can be so for all of us.

The Playlist #2: The Word of God

I’m sure most all of us would agree that one of the reasons we love southern gospel music is because of the sound Biblical basis of the lyrics.  Not only are southern gospel songs rooted in the Word of God, but many songs treat the Word itself as a lyrical subject.  The Bible is the foundation for all that Christians believe, so it’s certainly a worthy topic for a song.  Here is a playlist of some of my favorite songs of the Word.

 

  1. God’s Word, Kingdom Heirs, Give Me the Mountain
  2. His Life Is an Open Book, Lewis Family, 50th Anniversary Celebration
  3. Living in His Word, Hinsons, Generations
  4. Do It by the Book, Gold City, Windows of Home
  5. Read the Book, Cathedrals, Climbing Higher & Higher
  6. Lord, Your Word Is Still True, Kingdom Heirs, True to the Call
  7. If God Said It, I Believe It, Mark Trammell Trio, Always Have a Song
  8. Blessed Old Book, Rochesters, Heritage
  9. God Made It, Kingdom Heirs, City of Light
  10. Trust the Truth, Poet Voices, Trust the Truth
  11. You Cannot Improve on the Truth, Perrys, Almost Morning
  12. According to the Scriptures, Mark Trammell Trio, Beside Still Waters
  13. It Means Just What It Says, Greater Vision, Everyday People
  14. God’s Word Will Stand, Ivan Parker, It’s True
  15. You’ve Got His Word, Brian Free & Assurance, 4 God So Loved
  16. The Word, Kingsmen, When God Ran

Songwriter Series #3: Dianne Wilkinson

There are a select group of about four or five southern gospel songwriters who are a cut above the rest for me personally.  If you pressed me to give you a single favorite, however, my answer would have to be Dianne Wilkinson.  I have yet to meet this remarkable lady, but from listening to her songs and seeing interviews and other public appearances, I can confidently tell you two things about her.  Most importantly, she has has an obvious love for and devotion to the Word of God.  This is the absolute #1 criterion to me for a great gospel songwriter.  If the songs are grounded in the Word, they can’t help but have an impact somewhere down the line: God’s Word will not return void.  Secondly, Mrs. Wilkinson shares my love for old-fashioned quartet music.  Go ahead and try to name 10 great straight-ahead quartet songs from the last 20 years.  I guarantee you at least one of them, and probably more, were written by Dianne Wilkinson.  She is a true standard-bearer for this kind of music, and boy do we need it.

So lyrically, from a Dianne Wilkinson song you can count on a strong Biblical basis.  She doesn’t do as many Biblical narrative songs as a Rodney Griffin; instead, her songs tend to deal more with Biblical principles.  I challenge you to find a songwriter who better describes God’s salvation work.  She is not ashamed to put the Biblical creation account in song.  These are just two examples, but if you can think of an essential Christian doctrine, she has a hit song about it.

Musically, her strength is clearly in uptempo quartet-style songs.  She also tends to churn out plenty of good jazzy numbers, but she’s at her best with those barnburners.  That just happens to be my favorite kind of song.  This is not to say she can’t write a good ballad.  In fact, perhaps her greatest songwriting achievement is the triumphant “We Shall See Jesus,” and “We Will Stand Our Ground” is my favorite ballad from last year.  But just based on the quantity of songs of each style, she’s clearly an uptempo specialist.  Now for the stats (all from my personal music collection, not absolute totals for her):

Unique songs in my collection: 144

Total songs (including duplicates): 208

Most common artists:

  • Kingdom Heirs – 52

The Playlist #1: Salvation

I don’t know how many other people still do this, but I hardly ever listen to my music by popping a commercial CD into a CD player.  I almost always burn my music onto blank CDs so I can fit more songs onto it.  Typically I put a couple of full projects on one CD, e.g. my Gold City 1997-1998 CD, which might be my most played.  I decided to make thematic CDs, full of songs that lyrically encapsulate some great doctrines and experiences of the Christian life.  All of these playlists are real CDs that I made, to the 80-minute limit.  They are all in a random order, or at least the first random order iTunes came up with that I liked. 🙂

 

For the first in our series of playlists, I might as well start at the beginning.  For a Christian, the beginning of living isn’t really when you are born, but when you are born again.  Have you had a day or period of time when it just seems like you couldn’t get that day off your mind?  Have you just been at a church service where someone was saved?  This is the playlist for you.  Here are my favorite songs about salvation:

 

  1. He Made a Change, Cathedrals, Faithful
  2. Now I Am on My Way to Heaven, Kingdom Heirs, Gonna Keep Telling
  3. I Stand Redeemed, Legacy Five, Strong in the Strength
  4. Out of His Great Love, Martins, The Martins
  5. Saved by Grace, Triumphant Quartet, Love Came Calling
  6. Ever Since That Wonderful Day, Gold City, Renewed
  7. I Know That I Know, Mark Trammell Trio, Always Have a Song
  8. He Came to Me/Oh, What a Savior, Kingdom Heirs, Series 1
  9. All Washed Away, Inspirations, Things Are Different Now
  10. Somebody Touched Me, Cathedrals, The Prestigious Cathedral Quartet
  11. He Touched Me, Gaither Vocal Band, God Is Good
  12. The Greatest of All Miracles, Gold City, Double Take
  13. I Know It Was the Blood, Perrys, Look No Further
  14. What Salvation’s Done for Me, Booth Brothers, Room for More
  15. When the Lord Saved Me, Triumphant Quartet, Home Free
  16. Sinner Saved by Grace, Gaither Vocal Band, I Do Believe
  17. I’m Still Amazed, Perrys, Absolutely Positively Live
  18. Forever Changed, Kingdom Heirs, Forever Changed
  19. Saved, Gold City, Are You Ready?
  20. Paid in Full (Through Jesus Amen), Greater Vision, My Favorite Place
  21. He Locked the Gates, Kingdom Heirs, When You Look at Me
  22. Put That on My Account, Ruppes, Put That on My Account

Songs From Scripture #5: “We Still Have to Pray” (Greater Vision)

After being consumed by my Top 100 countdown for quite a while, it’s time we got back to some other series on the ol’ blog.  Let’s look at scriptural basis for another song written by Rodney Griffin.

When listening  to Greater Vision’s latest major recording last year, the ballad “We Still Have to Pray” jumped out at me.  I’m not sure this is a song that will ever make it to radio, and I’m not even sure Greater Vision will hardly ever sing it in concert, but it really struck a chord with me.

 

The lyric takes its cue from Genesis 25:21:

And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

 

And that’s it.  One verse in the entire Bible tells the story of Isaac’s burden for his barren wife, and God’s answering of his prayer.  Most of us Christians are probably more familiar with the story of Abraham and Sarah, barren into her old age, the fruit of which was Isaac himself, the son of promise.  But perhaps not as many know that Isaac went through a similar ordeal, albeit for a much shorter time period.  Griffin takes this one verse and builds a thought-provoking and moving lyric, successfully getting inside the heart and mind of Isaac.

Griffin makes it a point in the first verse to tell us just who Isaac was: “the son of promise had a heavy heart.”  Sometimes we as Christians assume that a great Bible character like Isaac, who more than anyone must have known the miracle-working power of God, would never have any moments of doubt or lapsing faith.  But in the end, he was human and flesh just like we are.  If Isaac, the son of promise, struggled with his faith, then surely we are at times going to do the same.

The chorus gives us our primary message of encouragement: “Even when we’re in God’s will we still must pray/Even while we hold His hand we have to wait/In time He will show the perfect way.”  There is absolutely nothing in the verses surrounding Genesis 25:21 to indicate that Isaac was in sin.  This problem was not a punishment for him.  We obviously all should have a goal of living a life free from sin, but we can never get close to that unless we realize that we can only do it through the power of God.  Isaac, though in the center of God’s will, still had to remember to depend wholly on the Lord.  Even if we feel on top of the world, and things are going fine, we’ve still got to lean on Him.

One of the great questions of all time, that people have been trying to answer since the beginning, is “why do bad things happen to good people?”  Why is it that, for His children, God doesn’t immediately show us where we’re going, and why, the moment we first ask Him?  Wouldn’t we be much better Christians if we could live our lives free from this sort of doubt?  We will never fully know the answer until we “know as we are known” in heaven, but this story, and this song, help us until that day.

The bridge Griffin writes into “We Still Have to Pray” is for me the song’s crowning moment: “You’re wishing that the Lord would show you what’s in store/But He loves you way too much to let you lose your faith’s rewards.”  That lyric hit me like a ton of bricks the first time I listened to it.  Our faith is a lot like a muscle.  If you don’t work out a muscle (I know this all too well) it won’t be as strong as it could be.  Our faith needs exercising to be strong.  God can’t just let us coast by in our lives with no problems and no moments of doubt.  Then how would we ever grow in faith?  On the contrary, what a blessing these burdens can be in our lives, if we allow God to use them to build us up as Christians.  And then one day in heaven, we will see the final reward for our faith.  Paul, in his touching last words to Timothy, says it all (2 Timothy 4:5-8):

5But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

6For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.

7I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:

8Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

 

Even when we’re doing as God wants us to do, we have to seek His direction.  He wants to hear from us, for us to tell him that we trust Him and depend on Him.  Sometimes He will allow problems in our lives to get us to realize that even more.  Look at those problems as opportunities to exercise your faith, and you’ll soon gain your reward.

Gold City – “It Won’t Be Long”

The new lineup of Gold City is really sounding good.  Danny Riley remains one of the most underrated singers in SG music and really shines on this song from their new project.  Thoughts?

Top 100 Breakdown: By Producer

We are all familiar with the voices who sing our favorite songs and record our favorite albums.  But often, we don’t think about the ones who are behind the scenes, creating the sound we love.  In this final post on my Top 100 countdown, I’ll show you the breakdown based on these “men behind the curtain”: the producers.

I knew coming into this exercise that Mark Trammell sang on a lot of my favorite albums.  But what I didn’t really grasp until I actually looked closely at it was the fact that he also produced and co-produced many of those top albums.  In fact, he has produced more albums in my Top 100 than any other individual. The versatile and extraordinarily talented Wayne Haun has the most non-performing producer credits on my list, working for five different groups.

I knew or was able to find producer credits for almost all of my Top 100.  I’ll start off listing the ones I don’t know, and if you happen to know the producer, please tell me!  I will edit the post and place the album under the right person.  For brevity’s sake, I’m not going to list every producer.  If someone’s not listed here, and you want to know if they are anywhere in my countdown, let me know in the comments.
